Psalms 143:6

⁴ My spirit grows faint within me; my heart is dismayed inside me.

⁵ I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I consider the work of Your hands.

I stretch out my hands to You; my soul thirsts for You like a parched land. Selah

⁷ Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit fails. Do not hide Your face from me, or I will be like those who descend to the Pit.

⁸ Let me hear Your loving devotion in the morning, for I have put my trust in You. Teach me the way I should walk, for to You I lift up my soul.
